The Philharmonic Concert.

The Philharmonic Society repeated their
concert Thursday night last at Browns opera
house, for the benefit of the Reform club.
A most artistic program was rendered, and
the entertainment was a success in every
respect. The flute solo of Mr. D. S. Butner
showed the highest skill. He has his art
almost down to perfection. Mr.. F. n.
Vogler in his vocal solo was universally
complimented. The vocal solo by Mrs.
Helen was enthusiastically applauded, and
was pronounced by all as the most enjoyable
feature of the program. Mr.. r. L. Car
michael held the audience breathless with
his violin solo and was repeatedly encored
He executed music of the most difficult class
with ease and precision.
